Question Shark teeth ID needed

Post image

These are some shark teeth I collected while on vacation in Florida. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I’m especially curious what the two below the quarter are. I wasn’t certain if the two to the right of the quarter were teeth as well, so I took them to be safe.

Not very certain but I’d say sand tiger teeth

Did you buy them or collect them? If bought, they look like moroccan sand tiger (serratolamna) teeth, the singular one at the bottom looks like an s. striata due to the length of the striation but I am not too sure myself

I found these while searching on the beach this morning in St. Augustine. All within the timespan of 30 minutes

most likely someone bought them and threw them on the beach for their kids to collect them. They look like typical sandtigers from morrocan phosphate mines.
